SCALLOPED POTATOES

White Sauce Ingredients:

• 3  Tablespoons butter
• 2  Tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 2  Cups milk

Make a white sauce of the first 3 ingredients.  Melt the butter in a small pot on stovetop low heat.  Add milk and flour and raise heat to medium high.  Stir until white sauce begins to thicken.

Potatoes:

• 6  Medium potatoes, pared and thinly sliced (6 cups)
• 2  Tablespoons of diced onions
• 1  Teaspoon of salt
• 1/8 Teaspoon pepper

Use some butter to grease a 2-quart Corning-ware casserole dish/pot having a glass cover.  Place half of the sliced potatoes in the casserole dish/pot.  Add half of the white sauce to the potatoes in the casserole dish/pot, and sprinkle about half of the salt, pepper and diced onions over the potatoes.  Create a second layer with the other half of the potatoes in the casserole dish/pot, sprinkle the remaining salt, pepper and diced onions.

Bake:

Pre-heat your oven to 350 degrees F.  Cover the casserole pot/dish with the glass lid and place the casserole pot/dish on the 2nd to lowest oven rack.  Bake covered for 1 hour at 350 degrees.  Uncover and bake an additional 30 minutes at 350 degrees.
